Off_White Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Well, I got my first deer. Good size four point buck. But dammit GregW, you're going to have to teach me to shoot, cuz its just too damned expensive using my Vanagon. Quote
bolt_clipper Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 I thought that all posters on this board are vegans, like Trask, Ct. Caveman, etc. Quote
To_The_Top Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 You tagged a 4 point with the Vanagan? Hope not too much damage. No fair using something without a deer whistle. TTT Sometimes zoos look for deer road kill for food. Quote
Mr._Natural Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Sometimes zoos look for deer road kill for food or homeless shelters, seriously. Quote
Greg_W Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 It's doubtful that any of that meat is any good after the trauma caused by the impact. Plus, it needs to be gutted rather quickly unless it is super cold, which it hasn't been. Best you can do is saw out the antlers and hang them in your garage. Actually, there are individuals who buy them to make furniture and stuff. Quote
shuksan Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 When I lived in the DC area, I occasionally hunted on the Quantico marine base. Whenever they had a road-kill on the base, they sent somebody out to pick it up, and if usable, gutted it and gave the meat to a soup kitchen. Quote
Greg_W Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 I agree, shuksan, it depends on how quickly you get to it. Quote

Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Greg, Â Your Espanol is muy malo. Please stick to slinging right-wing party line barbs to avoid further embarrassment. Â Linguistically yours, Dr. Flash Amazing Quote
Greg_W Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 (edited) Rule of thumb: Add an "o" to words in Mexico, add an "a" to words when in Italy. Funny anecdote: whilst floating through scenic Venice, my Gondolier did just this. "What's that building?" "That's a churcha." Â Kidding aside, I try and learn key phrases and words when overseas. DFA, my mexi-gringo speech was just for you. Edited December 10, 2002 by Greg_W Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Â The Doctor figured as much, Greg, you puto loco. Â It's true about tacking on a vowel to get words in other languages. DFA's Spanish teacher during his Junior year in Highschool referred to this as "Spanglish," and encouraged us, if we couldn't remember a word on a test or whatever, to at least try the Spanglish, as it was often correct.

ryland_moore Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 In reply to: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Sometimes zoos look for deer road kill for food   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------   or homeless shelters, seriously. Or my refrigerator, seriously. I love road kill, especially when fresh (meaning I hit it or a friend did). As long as a deer was not hit at 60 mph, the meat is not traumatized and is fine. The main hurdle you have to get over is talking the state trooper into letting you have it. A buddy of mine actually got a moose that way. The moose was so tall that when he hit it, it took out the moose's legs and was suffering. He ended it misery with a knife and then was able to keep the 400 lbs. of meat and fed himself for a year and a half. 100 lbs of deer meat is much healthier than eating horomone-injected beef, pork, chicken, etc. Street value of about $300 easy. Pretty wise to harvest road kill if you ask me....  Quote
Greg_W Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Doesn't the Fish & Game Department get involved? They would be tough to convince as well. Quote
ryland_moore Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Not neccessarily. Late night hits, ODF&W don't want to get involved and it is usually just easier for the cop to let you have it then call a bunch of people, remove it, transport it to fish and game so they can remove teeth and check for disease - your tax dollars at work!

RobBob Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 I love venison, but I am keeping a close eye on increasing reports of CWD. Quote
Greg_W Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Haven't heard any reports of cases out this way. Have you? Quote
RobBob Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 No Greg, not yet. But somewhere recently I saw a map and it was more widespread than I had believed. Quote
